No Strings Attached (Jungkook x OC)

Part 7: Happy Birthday, Jungkook.

"I think I know why Jungkook's so upset today," she replied and Jimin snorted. "What?"

"The boy finally spoke up after giving me the silent treatment." Jimin chuckled and she shook her head as if he would see her.

"No!" She exclaimed. "I was piecing things together all morning, and I'm pretty sure I know why he's upset."

"Well then, why is he so moody on his own birthday?" Jimin asked. "He's worse than my own girlfriend when she's on her period."

"Do you manage to have a hold of his parents' phone numbers?" She questioned him and Jimin let out a soft 'ah', as if he understood exactly where she was getting at.

"His parents never really greeted him, did they?" She sighed and he bit his lip. "Why didn't I think of that?"

"Do you have them?" She crossed her fingers as Jimin smiled.

"I do, you want them?" Jimin asked and Seoyeon replied with a 'yes'. "Alright, you better get them digits down with a paper and pen."

As she wrote the numbers down onto a piece of paper, she showered Jimin with all her gratitude. Jimin couldn't help but smile and feel happy about what she was doing for Jungkook.

"What's your plan?" Jimin asked, only to shake his head, "do you even have a plan at all?"

Seoyeon pursed her lips into a line, "well, I do have a plan in mind.. but I don't know if it's going to turn out well."

"I'm pretty sure it will, Seoyeon-ah." Jimin trailed off. "I just want you to take care of Jungkook today.. cheer him up, because I know you will."

"Yah! Stop jinxing it, what if it doesn't work?!" She exclaimed and Jimin burst out into laughter.

"It's the truth, Seoyeon-ah." He teased. "Now, you should go and fulfill your own plan. And I think we've become best friends after today. What should we call ourselves? The dream team?"

"Wish me luck," she ignored his question and his face went blank.

"You don't need luck at all," he bit his lip. "This is all the works of fate and love."

"Jungkook-ah, how's the ice cream?"

After a hard work's day of cleaning his office, the two of them found themselves walking down the pier with ice cream cones in hand. Every now and then, Jungkook's hand would brush against hers, and she would quickly pull away.

"It's great, I guess." He shrugged his shoulders for the billionth time today.

She glanced up at him and watched him stare off into the distance with troubled thoughts in his mind. She knew Jungkook too well, he was definitely not having the best day ever. The grand clock sitting a few metres away from the deck read 5:36 pm. Her eyes widened, and out of instinct she grabbed his hand.

"What-Where are we going?" Jungkook was following her behind, a blush creeping on his cheeks at the touch of her hand with his.

She looked over her shoulder and smiled, "you'll see."

He frowned, following the girl as she led him to the stores of Seoul. The sun was almost setting, and the streets were getting crowded with people who were sight-seeing and/or shopping. The streetlights were beginning to light up the streets and traffic was soon coming to an end.

Jungkook cursed to himself for not bringing his camera with him on such a beautiful night.

He scoffed, it would've been a better day if they remembered.
